Organ harvesting / Organ theft
Shouldn't this article be merged with organ theft? /Slarre (talk) 13:55, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Done. SilkTork * 09:11, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
Israel
I have added the following paragraph. It is sourced. In December 2009, Israel admitted there had been organ harvesting of skin, corneas, heart valves and bones from dead bodies of Palestinians, Israeli soldiers and citizens and foreign workers, without permission from relatives, in the 1990s, but said that this practice no longer occurred. The revelation was a consequence of the Aftonbladet-Israel_controversy.http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/dec/21/israeli-pathologists-harvested-organshttp://aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article6323046.ab Aftonbladet: Israel tog organ – utan tillstånd]93.96.148.42 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 01:32, 16 February 2010 (UTC).
Kilgour Matas Report
Please note this report is a very questionable source, since it is pretty much entirely based on unreliable allegation made by members of the Falun Gong religious sect. All the parties supporting Kilgour Matas are Falun Gong outfits (Epoch Times, CIPFG, etc.):
1) US State Dept investigated this and found no evidence: http://www.america.gov/st/washfile-english/2006/April/20060416141157uhyggep0.5443231.html#ixzz20zxXq8mk
2) Well know China dissident Harry Wu voice disagreement and revealed the political nature of this allegation: http://www.facts.org.cn/Recommendations/200711/t68651.htm
3) Canadian journalist Glen McGregor Glen McGregor of Ottawa Citizen summarizing the dubious nature of the Falun Gong organ harvesting accusation: http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/story.html?id=8a3de338-e62d-4446-952a-7a6eedc772a7&p=1 http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/observer/story.html?id=2c15d2f0-f0ab-4da9-991a-23e4094de949&p=3
4) The Kilgour Matas report has since been declared exteremist writing by Russian courts: http://news.nationalpost.com/2011/12/24/extremist-writings-of-ex-canadian-mp-lawyer-banned-in-russia-because-of-criticisms-of-china/
Please consider these facts when editing the relevant passages, thanks. Bobby fletcher (talk) 18:09, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Photo is dubious in nature
the photo insert claims a fact that is not in evidence. The Falun Gong organ harvesting is an allegation not fact. At a minimum the description should including the word "alleged" or something like that. Bobby fletcher (talk) 19:14, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
